"I have said that the Declaration of Independence is the ring-bolt to the chain of your nation’s destiny; so, indeed, I regard it. The principles contained in that instrument are saving principles. Stand by those principles, be true to them on all occasions, in all places, against all foes, and at whatever cost." — Frederick Douglass
Sadly, the United States hasn’t excelled at extending the principles of the Declaration of Independence to all people. But I take heart knowing that many Americans are working to make sure all humans here are allowed their rights — to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I know you’re tired, friends. Take a break, take care of yourself, and keep fighting. We’re right there with you ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
